Abstract:
Following the introduction of the new even-odd and isoelectronic rules and
definitions affecting the understanding of electronic structure and bonds, the
author has thought necessary to summarize understandings in the form of a
table. The classical periodic table, a simple tool used by generations of physicists,
is here extended to become a useful tool aimed specifically at chemists. In
chemistry, position and number of covalent bonds of each atom are needed,
as well as the exact location of charges. The table gives the number of possible
bonds for each element and reveals how it is affected by charges. Additionally,
the specific table indicates for each atom its isoelectronic elements and highlights
the distinction between organic and inorganic elements. Discussion is
led on the first two rows of the table by successfully comparing its statement
with more than 50 well-known liquid and gaseous compounds.
